Capitol Report

The Kansas Senate and House last week voted to override a veto by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius of a law that would allow Kansas residents 21 or older who are U.S. citizens to carry a concealed weapon.

"While every law-abiding Kansan has a right to keep and bear arms, hidden weapons make it harder for law enforcement to do its job, and they make Kansas' workplaces less safe," Sebelius said in her veto message.

With the successful veto override, the bill becomes law in July.

The Senate voted 30-10 to override the veto; the House voted 91-33 to override.
